LPOP (1)

LPOP = Little pieces of paper

One of the greatest things about these little PDAs is their ability to reduce the clutter of little pieces of paper lying around the desk, stuck in my Bible, lying on my dresser, etc., each containing one or more important bits of information. When I first got my Handspring Visor Pro 5 years ago, I immediately transferred all my little bits of information into my PDA as memos, and there they have resided ever since. How about a little snapshot of a few little pieces of paper in my PDA?
